| Arthur Hugh Clough - LoveToKnow Watches (1086 words) |
| ARTHUR HUGH CLOUGH (1819-1861), English poet, was born at Liverpool on the 1st of January 1819. |
| In 1828 the family paid a visit to England, and Clough was left at school at Chester, whence he passed in 1829 to Rugby, then under the sway of Dr Thomas Arnold, whose strenuous views on life and education he accepted to the full. |
| Clough was for a time carried away by the flood, and, although he recovered his equilibrium, it was not without an amount of mental disturbance and an expenditure of academic time, which perhaps accounted for his failure to obtain more than a second class in his final examination. |
